Notes

This recipe has been adapted for one person from the Ashoka restaurant in Scotland where it allegedly out sells Chicken Tikka Masala by a factor of 10:1. It was apparently developed for patrons that preferred Chinese food and is a fusion between Indian and Chinese. Coconut milk can be used as an alternative to cream or a mixture of both.
